There are many bad academic papers, Campbell picks them and
misrepresents the results to boost his YouTube subscribers. If you
watched Susan Oliver's critiques, it might become clearer to you. No one
wants to watch John Campbell repeatedly telling them the pandemic is
over, so he tells them some bollocks, about a vaccine conspiracy, and
they continue subscribing.

order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.
